TX HHS Form 8585. RN Delegation Worksheet for 22 TAC Chapter 225
Form 8585 is a Delegation Worksheet used by Registered Nurses (RNs) in Texas when evaluating whether specific health-related tasks for individuals with stable and predictable conditions can be delegated to unlicensed personnel under 22 TAC Chapter 225. This form is always completed by an RN and attached to the comprehensive nursing assessment. Its main purpose is to document which tasks require nursing judgment, which may be delegated, and which qualify as Health Maintenance Activities (HMAs) exempt from delegation.
